Had my surgery in December 2011 and have finally figured out how to get my before and after photos up. I hope this gives all the ones dreading the long haul encouragement. One step at a time!! Good luck on your journey!!
For those of you just starting this Journey, I will assure you it is worth it. I am down 52 pounds since December 19th. I went jean shopping for the first time 3 weeks ago and had no idea I dropped to a size 12, now I am in a size 10, that is 4 sizes....4!!! Those first 3 weeks I was bumming, thought I'd never be able to eat again...I can, but with a mindset, I love it that I think before I eat. Never thought I would use a dessert plate for a dinner plate! This is an incredible journey!
So, I haven't been on here in a while, still trying to figure out how to get a picture up. I have my second appointment post surgery on April 6th. Had my surgery December 19th, can't believe it's been 3 and 1/2 months. Today I'm at 157!!!!!! 52 pounds. I cannot believe that either. One of my friends at work said " you are so tiny ", I said....Are you talking to me!!!!
Went to Docs for my check up and have lost 27% of my excess weight. And, of course now I'm at a stall...ugh. But i feel so much better. Need to pick up on the protein. Good day everyone!
I am 24 pounds down now, have been weighing myself and charting it on my Wii Fit, which I love, I just can't wait until that damn little voice doesn't say "That's obese"!!!!!!
